“Our children don't have to have drinking problems. They don't have to go through divorce or live defeated lives. You can be the one to stir them up, shake them up, and tell them there is a champion inside of them just waiting to come out.

You can decide to be the role model and reverse your whole generational pattern from a bad one to a good one.”
